Dive teams today resume their search of the Scioto River near downtown, where a teen boy is believed to have drowned Thursday. Witnesses saw the unidentified teen go under as he and three other boys played in the water near the Greenlawn Avenue bridge, where currents are fast and water depths vary. No-swimming signs are posted in the area.
